By Ava Dickson PALM BEACH, Fla., June 5, 2025 — The 2025 Kips Bay Palm Beach Show House offers a perfect lesson in how to make a front porch feel both grand and inviting. This particular space stands out for its clever use of traditional red brick and lush greenery, framing the entrance with layers of charm. Neatly trimmed topiaries and overflowing planters guide your eye to the dramatic black door, while soft ferns and potted shrubs add warmth and a lived-in elegance. It’s a smart mix of structure and softness—refined yet relaxed—that makes the entryway feel welcoming without losing its sense of occasion.

What really catches the eye, though, are the two wild boar sculptures guarding the steps like whimsical gatekeepers. Whether intentional or not, they bear a striking resemblance to Razorbacks—an unexpected nod to Arkansas that Razorback fans would appreciate instantly. It’s a playful, memorable detail that adds personality without needing explanation. This space is a reminder that the best design doesn’t have to be overly curated; sometimes, it’s the bold, personal touches—layered with thoughtful greenery and timeless materials—that make the biggest impact.
